Comments: "We drove away in an unlicensed car that we did not legally own, complete with a bashed in front end, a badly cracked windshield, and a headlight propped in with duct tape, a tree branch and a piece of foam lying on the ground. It was not an encouraging way to start our 3,000 mile journey". (from he back cover)

Comments: "Drive Nacho
Drive tells the hilarious and sometimes harrowing story of what happens when
Brad and Sheena Van Orden trade in the American Dream for a year on the roads
of Central and South America aboard "Nacho", their quirky and
somewhat temperamental Volkswagen van. As a result of questionable decision-making
skills and intermittent bad luck, Brad and Sheena repeatedly find themselves in
over their heads. Whether negotiating cliff-hanging roads in rebel territory,
getting caught illegally smuggling a transmission in a suitcase over
international lines, mounting a stealth mission to steal Nacho back from a
deranged Colombian auto dismantler, or clinging to the side of a vegetable
truck while descending a 16,000 foot Andean pass, there seems to be no limit to
the predicaments that these two can get themselves into." (from Amazon.com website)
